Check out www.arthobby.com they have a very nice selection in the $125-$150 range but they are not composit, they are hardwood veneer over virgin styrofoam, nice kits and not too difficult to build. -----Original Message----- From: Nathan Woods [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, February 17, 2003 1:42 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I tend to agree with Brett, the Mpx Lucky is probably the best performing plane under $250. Zoom up to $300 and your options are much more interesting though. At $300 (+/-) you can get the MachDart, Nemesis, Flash, Fury, Vindicator, Dominator, or a whole host of other planes, like the Airtech Psycho from www.slopeflyer.com.... You should also consider the new breed of higher end foamies now available such as the 56" Bluto from www.NorthCountyFlyingMachines.com or the 60" Gulp from www.SteveDrake.com. Both are capable of high speeds and bounce well :-). I recently flew my Gulp in F3F and did well with it, impressing everyone, especially myself! Yesterday I flew my Gulp SR in the Long Beach Man-on-Man slope race and won the 60" class with, in lightish lift.
